(written from a Production point of view)
Looney Labs is an American game design and manufacturing company. Founded by Andrew and Kristin Looney in 1996, and based in Maryland, the company is best-known for the Fluxx card game and its variants.
In 2018, it was announced that the company was pairing with Gale Force Nine to produce two Star Trek-based variants of Fluxx. Star Trek Fluxx and Star Trek: The Next Generation Fluxx were released in August 2018, along with a expansion pack, Star Trek Fluxx Bridge Expansion, which allowed the two games to be combined together.

In January 2019, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Fluxx was officially announced. It was released in July 2019. [2] About a month later in August 2019, a Trek-themed edition of the game Chrononauts titled Star Trek Chrono-Trek was released.
In February 2020, Star Trek: Voyager Fluxx was announced via an article on the TrekCore website. Prototype art for the box and several playing cards were shown, and a prediction of a "Summer (2020) release" was made. Unfortunately, the article also stated that this would be the last Trek-related Fluxx game released, as no plans for a Star Trek: Enterprise Fluxx were in the works. [3]
